We are just a few hours away from witnessing the launch of 2018’s most expected premium flagship device, the OnePlus 6T in India. With that being said, OnePlus has already announced OnePlus 6T smartphone at an event in New York, as it had promised.

Initially, OnePlus launched its OnePlus 6 in May, which in fact became OnePlus’ fastest selling smartphone in the history. As a part of the tradition, the company is launching a ‘T’ model, which is essentially an upgrade over the previous model in any given year.

One such feature that really caught the attention is the In-display fingerprint scanner called as ‘Screen Unlock’. The OnePlus 6T will sport a Screen Unlock feature will feature a new optical fingerprint module housing a small lens that can accurately register your fingerprint when pressed down on the cover glass. Moreover, the Screen Unlock will learn to recognise your fingerprint with higher accuracy through extended use.

In this process, the company has removed the 3.5mm headphone jack, which as per the company claims took up the space near the bottom of the phone. This is expected to be the strategy for shifting 6T owners towards wireless headphones, as its new Type-C Bullets will launch alongside.

The OnePlus 6T comes powered by a huge 3700mAh battery which is 10% bigger than OnePlus 6. In addition, the device also has OnePlus’ proprietary Dash Charging technology too. Moreover, there are some changes in dimension as well, where the OnePlus 6T is thicker by 0.45mm since the internal hardware had to be rearranged.

Apart from the above-mentioned features, the OnePlus 6T sports a 6.4-inch AMOLED display with a smaller notch, powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 chipset with up to 8GB RAM and runs on Android 9.0 (Pie) out-of-the-box.
